Looks like this could use an RFC Editor Note - here's some possible draft
text that should be placed at the end of Section 3.3 (after figure 3):
The use of 32-bit sequence numbers vs. 64-bit extended sequence
numbers is determined by the security association (SA) management
protocol that is used to create the SA. For IKEv2 [RFC4306] this
is negotiated via Transform Type 5, and the default for ESP is to
use 64-bit extended sequence numbers in the absence of negotiation
(e.g., see Section 2.2.1 of [RFC4303]).
Thanks,
--David
